Anyone other than Festus working on a custom slug?

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Tom gave us this beautiful canvas to do milling magic on to and it seems like no one else seems to care. Festus put the time and effort into but I don't really seen anyone else putting more than 5 minutes into help design a slug body. For the people out there who can't afford an X-MAg...here is the project that you should be jumping all over but to me it seems like the community at large could care less about it. We had all these cool neat-o ideas when the X-Mag milling was on the drawing board, so what happened to all those cool ideas?

We have some and are waiting on a new motor for our milling machine. Should be starting next week.

Tom annouced he was working on a ULE one that I assume will be sold that way. No details though.

It seems, to me anyway, that there hasn't been a lot of milled sluggos because not many people have access to a milling machine; let alone know how to use one. I for one would have bought a sluggo a long time ago, but as I said, I don't have access to a milling machine nor do I know how to use one. But oh well, I'm sure we'll seem some popping up every now and again.

I can't wait for some milled and annodized sluggos to be available, don't have the resources to take care of that myself. Post em when you get em.

I wouldn't be worried about the bit. I'd be worry about the 2 weeks you're gonna be unavailable to do anything else if you really intend to do a good milling job with a dremel :)

I am milling my self one as soon as it gets here. Got it as payment for milling a sniper body for someone. Just waitingon it to be shipped twice and then it is mine!!!!

A ULE slug body? Great idea! And for all of you who are getting your slugs milled: thanks for sacrificing your time and money, we all know how many of us want to see the end results! I'm really interested in seeing what's to happen of the "official AO slug body"... nuclearzombie seems to have posted quite a few concept pics.

[DiRTyBuNNy]

I never actually asked for people to produce other bodies..but at least with X-Mag design people were uploading drawings, CAD files and the like...it just seems like a lot less people are putting effort into this..and if some comes up with a real cool drawing maybe some other people will see the ideas and it will spark them to come up with their own designs. I'm not asking people to actually produce them, but to only expand the listing of ideas regarding a design.

I'm very interested in a milled slug body. I'm just waiting for the nicest one I see at the right price. Tunaman hit us up with idea graphics if you can. I've heard news of a PBX slug body. Any body know any thing?
